ICF Flexline™ valve station

Unique modular concept

Unmatched freedom is the keyword of ICF Flexline™ valve stations. As part of the Flexline™ platform, these valve stations are based on a unique modular concept.

This multi-ported Danfoss control solution offers you significant savings by substituting a string of valves with just one valve station. Consisting of a valve housing and a maximum of four or six function modules, the valve station is a true plug-and-play solution.

90% of all applications are covered in just four basic configurations and allows for more than 50 custom configurations. To you, this means fast installation and less service hours.

The valve stations are suitable for all common low- and high-pressure refrigerants, liquid lines, compressor injection lines and hot gas lines. They are approved up to 52 bar (754 psi), and you can use them with most kinds of refrigerants.

Features and benefits

Great time savings, only one component, easy system design with free 3D valve drawings

80 % less installation time with only two welds

Reduced need for insulation, compact design

Easy to service during operation and maintenance

Low refrigerant loss during operation

Long service life

Introducing new ICF stainless steel valve stations

Conquer chill & embrace benefits

On 1st of March, 2014, Danfoss, announced that its “ICF valve station” solution supported the Grand Farm’s benchmark project in China. It’s another milestone in the cattle slaughtering house industry of China upon the guarantee of the cycle of project construction and the safety and flexibility of the refrigeration system.

As a leader in the China slaughterhouse industry, the Tangrenshen Group is a well-known company located in Hunan, a province in central China. In 2008, their new 100,000 ton food processing plant was regarded as a new technical direction for the Tangrenshen Group. Danfoss provided a complete hot-gas defrosting solution for its ammonia refrigeration system that provides the processing plant's cold storage. It was in this project that the first ICF valve stations were installed in China. We are very pleased to report; they are performing today just as well as they did when commissioned in 2009.

Sour cream recipe succeeds with ICF Flexline™

Eating healthier, more natural foods is a growing trend that delights Daisy Brands - a family-owned, Garland, Texas-based firm that makes the best-selling brand of sour cream in the United States. Known for its "Pure and Natural" recipe using no additives, preservatives or artificial growth hormones, the company recently opened a plant in Casa Grande, Arizona, to expand its national distribution. The continuing success of Daisy Brands is based on a recipe that uses all-natural ingredients -- plus, the technology ingredient of the Danfoss Flexline™ family of motor control valves and control stations.

Industrial refrigeration systems predominantly use natural refrigerants, primarily ammonia and more recently CO2 Energy efficiency and the effective operation of those systems are the key parameters for operators of the plants The focus of the white paper is the comparisons of hot gas defrost strategy control methods, both on the hot gas side as well as on the condensate drain
